The only Orioles player moves this month were made last Monday when they signed left-handers Scarling Sterling and Christian Rojas to minor league contracts. The deals didn’t appear on the transactions page until the weekend. Sterling was assigned to “Purple-South” in the MLB amateur scouting league in the Dominican Republic on May 5. That’s the ex

Any business conducted by the Orioles this month is mostly done behind closed doors with limited or no information available, especially interviews for the managerial position. The process was advancing, but very quietly. It's almost finished. The secrecy has broken apart. A source confirmed this afternoon that the Orioles interviewed Guardians ass

The start of Dylan Beavers’ major league career couldn’t have gone much better.  In his first three games, the outfielder had already collected four hits.

The World Series moves from Toronto to Los Angeles, and neutral fans should be hoping for a Game 7 because it’s the best thing in sports. Doesn’t matter whether we’re talking MLB, NBA or NHL. The drama is intoxicating. Speaking of which, let’s raise a glass to Trey Mancini and Sara Perlman on the birth of their daughter Sadie Mila. Good things happ

The Orioles made Rodriguez the 11th overall selection in the 2018 draft and finally introduced him to the majors in 2023 after a lat injury the previous summer put his debut on hold.
